Sleep apnoea
Posted: Sat Dec 17, 2005 8:17 am
These are a few quotations made by pts wife.
pt wife is narrating as he does not remember the incidence of night.
Wife is 3 mnts pregnant. But got into new job and the hus got a
promotion ie work is more but cash wise not so.
He was at home from yday afternoon. V had a very peaceful evening. He
watched tv. Later he spend time on analysing and studying shares. I get
tired by night 10-11. so I slept at 11.00 he was in the Internet. He
came to sleep at 12.00. by night 2.00 I could feel him fidgeting on the
bed. And his body movements. I felt he was getting up. I really got
frightened. I rushed and got up from the bed and switched on the lights.
And I am seeing anand STANDING ON THE BED in his sleep. I asked him
what he was doing!. He didn’t reply. I told him to sit. He is not
talking. It was ice cold room with A/c. he was sweating. I asked how I
can help him. He just looked at me. didn’t reply wiped his sweat and
slept back..!. I wonder if he was trying to sleep walk! Or he was trying
to switch on the light. Morning I asked him what he was doing. He
remember he stood up on the bed…Y he doesn’t know, he doesn’t remember
anything.. what was his mental condition also he doesn’t remember. He
was thanking God that he didn’t stamp me!!!!. he really scared me
tooooo much yday.
My hus. gets very upset on his office matters. His problem is that he
is living in present and at night he thinks of future. When he comes
back from office. he is in the present. He has several pending work and
headache cases to be solved and night he starts thinking of future. He
thinks what can be done to solve it. Then he knows that lot of
departments and ppl have to coordinate..then he feels helpless of his
situation.. he gets angry and frustrated. And most nights he
speaks..very loud and clear in English his office matters..(that
speaking part I have always kept ignoring) coz I am used to it now. His
futuristic feelings and present conditions of works is coming out as
nightmares/suffocation ( I don’t know wht is it still) from him. May be
if v take a holiday this might become well.
BP is 116/74 .
exact height 185 cms
his exact weight is 112 kgs.
some 2 yrs back this was the only problem.
1001 times i wake up my his and tell him not to snore. even he cannot
help it. His nose is stooped and he isnot able to breath though the nose.
6mnts back
he speaks in his sleeps and some days he gets up with very bad dreams
after that he is very troubled. Snoring always there, almost most days.
This month beginning the problem have become sever.
he get's up from sleep with full sweat and saying he is feeling
suffocated. Same old problem. When he gets up he grabs my hands and
drags me up also. My stomach got strained but I kept quite..while going
to sleep he was telling that day his work is not over due to lack of time
then the symptoms goes like this.
Since then he insist on turning on the tublight at night or else he
isnot able to sleep if the tight is onhe is not getting the suffocative
spells. In his Dreams he feels he is i a dark room/dungeon/trench and
there is no water, air and light it is totally dark and he so gets
suffocated gets fully suffocated sweats in a full a/c ( especially neck
in the back) gets up, sits or start to walk but lie down again and
sleep as wife by then would have put on the light he then sleeps and
does not what he did or told in the morning he know something wrong he
did but does not know what.
The pt is young 30 yrs doing management come sales job. Was the top in
sales so got promotion to this job which in mid post to a subsidiary
manger so has to do both the job also manage the sales and of his team.
Very obedient so does over work even of the team members. Never gets
angry nor expresses it. does not believe in things like bribe etc to get
a better position, does not fag or booze, craves very tasty food likes
non veg - chicken fried, like cold chilled water but now avoids as it
is producing stoppage on nostrils at night and provoke snoring and
sleep apnoea like things so has reduced the wt in the last few months.
Crazy of share business as he want to be a millioner. Thirst increased.
occasionally constipated.
Any remedy suggestion. Rubrics to be selected, any dietary suggestion.
